- All cancellations/refund requests must be made via email to our office within the deadlines stated above.
- If Alpine Ascents cancels or reschedules a program (prior to the start of the trip), all fees are refundable and/or transferable.
Trip Cancellation Insurance
As there are many unforeseen circumstances that may occur during or leading up to the trip, including trip interruption or postponement, we highly recommend trip cancellation insurance.
Trip cancellation insurance allows you to get reimbursement if you need to cancel your expedition when you are not entitled to a refund from Alpine Ascents, or when extreme circumstances prevent trip services from being provided.
Alpine Ascents International offers a plan in conjunction with our travel insurance partner.
The expedition was a great way to let clients feel out what a high altitude expedition might be like and how one might acclimate. The logistics and level of preparation were planned down to every detail from not only the minimum requirements for climbing but also what layers to wear and when, how many calories are needed, what to bring and how much water should be consumed. Outstanding.
